In Episode 19 Deep-Dive: Anger, we hear from Natalie Hixson. Natalie is a wife, and mother of three. She hosts her own podcast Motherhood Restored and is a Christian Life Coach in the US, working with mothers who are struggling to overcome destructive anger.  
In this episode, Natalie and Tanya walk through Natalie's journey to recognise and deal with anger that put her and her family at risk. Everything came to a head when Natalie took her troubled child to a psychiatrist, only to be told that her daughter was perfectly normal and it was Natalie herself that needed to be in therapy. With the Lord's help, Natalie was able to overcome her destructive patterns and restore her most valuable relationships.

In Episode 18 Deep-Dive: Unfaithfulness, we hear from Anne-Maree Choi. Anne-Maree is a wife, mother, step-mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother. She works now as a Christian Counsellor and Lifestyle Coach in private practice in Brisbane. She is also now the author of Heartbroken, yet Radiant, which shares her personal story of healing from intimate betrayal.
In this episode, Anne-Maree shares how her husband's confession of an affair sparked an 8-year trudge with the Lord faithfully at her side through incredible hurt and grief and then a process of healing. Finally, through God's amazing redemptive power and her own unwavering faithfulness, she was restored to life and the godly marriage she longed for. We look together at the nature of God's faithfulness and His call for us to bear that characteristic, as well as the destructive effect that refusing the call has on our own life and the lives of those around us.

2 Timothy 2:11-13
Matthew 5:39

Jessica Paewai is a mother of two, a business owner and training to be a Religious Instruction teacher.After growing up in a strict Pentecostal church in South Africa, Jessica had wandered far from God and her faith. After many years in the world, one morning, she found herself literally running to church. And yet her relationship with God remained lukewarm until the day she and her husband received the devastating news that their 3 year old son had been diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). DMD is a severe and progressive muscular disorder which affects all muscles in the body, including those used for breathing and spine support. Children with DMD generally lose the ability to walk by the age of 12 years.
Jessica shares how this event brought herself and members of her family back into deep relationship with God, and how it began writing a story of both physical and spiritual healing into her life. We discuss these events and the extraordinary power that speaking the Word of the Lord can have on body and soul.

Not only has Cheri been called to trust God in sometimes overwhelming circumstances as a mother, her ministry responsibilities and just living life. She also shares how God brought a blessing and surprise into their family in circumstances where such a thing seemed impossible.

Tanya Greig is a mother of 2 and works in school administration. She has been a Christian all her life and served in various roles including religious instruction in schools. At 36 she was diagnosed with breast cancer that began a 7-year journey into deep relationship with God.
In part 2 of this episode, we hear how Tanya's journey with cancer led her through multiple treatments and surgeries. Even after she lost and regained the ability to walk, her faith in God has continued to grow, as He led her through every trial. We discuss the surprise it still is when God shows us even a tiny portion of the love He has for us, and our very human response to His generosity.

Tanya Greig is a mother of 2 and works in school administration. She has been a Christian all her life and served in various roles including religious instruction in schools. At 36 she was diagnosed with breast cancer that began a 7-year journey into deep relationship with God.
In part 1 of this episode, Tanya shares how her journey with God through cancer began. We begin to tease out the conflict between our reliance on the body for this life and our trust in God who sustains it and uses it for His eternal purpose. Step by step, God gently moved into the central position in Tanya's life, remarkably, revealing His life-giving power through events that seemed so destructive.
